What's next?

"A marriage pact with Rachel"

"Um, what?" Rachel asked for clarification.

"I want you to promise to get engaged with me if we're both still single when we turn 25," Leo explained himself.

"Is that it?" Rachel asked, almost sighing in relief, "to get married to you when we're older?"

"Yes," Leo began a monologue, "I know how serious and intelligent you were on your first day of classes, and how your energy has continued even in another direction. I get that your body count is higher than your age now," something that made Rachel grimace in annoyance, "but I know that once you leave college you'll be headed off to great and wonderful things, and I'd love to be a part of that adventure."

"Awww, that's so sweet," Melly complimented Leo.

"And I know that your actions here at Wilson might turn a lot of men off in your later years, but I already know how talented and ... adventurous you could be.

Rachel Anne Byrne," Leo concluded, "will you marry me, maybe, in seven-ish years?"

Rachel froze and thought about it. Leo was indeed quite cute, and part of her thought the gesture was nice, but on the other hand she had only known him for weeks and this was a huge ask to take on - she might not even want to get married ever. Not to mention, that last part about turning men off in adulthood struck her as extremely sexist.

Does Rachel accept, or does she break Leo's heart?
